    Did two things this past weekend...

    First, I ran 10k for the first time in two months after laying off that long to let my ankle bursitis subside, trying to allow the area to generally heal up. It appears that it worked. To my delight, there was no ankle pain after and I hadn’t even lost much stamina thanks to hitting an elliptical machine twice a week for an hour instead of jogging. My upper legs are another matter, though.

    C&C chapter 40 entering prereads tonight + teaser

    Much as I didn’t want to, I made the decision to break it up since the full length of the War Council meeting had exceeded 20,000 words and will probably approach 25k for the now-two chapters before all is said and done. The breakpoint itself will be between learning about the general war situation both Aricia and the Griffon Kingdom face, and then discussing what in all the Crows they’re going

    Midnight Rising/C&C update: April showers may bring May flowers...

    But of more interest is the emergence of 17-year cicadas in my area. Big, ugly, red-eyed insects that are the size of your thumb but basically harmless, as long as you can get past all the shed skins they leave behind on leaves and the everpresent and disconcertly loud background sound they produce as a mating call. Fortunately, the outbreak in my area seems pretty limited. There's a few around,

    Midnight Rising update; Feathered Hearts C&C teaser...

    Hey, folks. Here’s my weekly writing update. I’m tagging this as C&C since that’s what the teaser below is about, but the blog is about both it and Unleash the Magic - Midnight Rising.

    Prereader verdict on new Midnight Rising chapter is in...

    And unfortunately, that verdict is unanimous:

    Complaints were: too meta, hard to follow, does nothing to advance the plot, and potentially makes things worse while trying to fix them.

A huge milestone! :pinkiehappy: Thank you, one and all. I wish I could offer up a reward for that, but with multiple stories in progress and a third beginning renovations, there's nothing I could write that would please everyone. Some people are here for my warfics, while others like my clop. Still others joined up after my Twilight visits Chernobyl one-shot, and more than a few of you, I'm sure, are still waiting hopefully on a Turnabout Storm sequel.

I honestly wish I could clone myself about five times so I could divide my attention between all my stories and projects--I mean, I'd have one clone work on Firefly, a second on The Lawyer and The Unicorn revamp, a third on Nightmare Night, a fourth on Temptations & Transformations, a fifth on the TAS/TLaTU sequel, and lest I forget, a sixth for working on my anthro novel.

Or maybe I wouldn't need to clone myself if I let myself get infected by Cyber Belle's technocurse from Unleash the Magic - Nightmare Night? Then instead of cloning, I could simply use my cybernetics to multitask very rapidly and effectively. I could start churning this stuff out something fierce.

Hey, better infected by that than Coronavirus, right? :unsuresweetie: Anyway, I didn't want to let this occasion pass without expressing my gratitude to everyone who follows me. Your interest in my works is very much appreciated. I've had to build my audience very slowly and patiently over the years I've been on this site, as I've never had a breakout hit. Since I'm not really interested in churning out crowd-pleasing one-shots, if you're here, it's likely because you enjoy my longfics and appreciate my worldbuilding and character development--even in my clopfics. For that, I thank you again.

To eight years (!) and ten stories totaling 3 million words (!!!) on this site, and to hopefully a few more of each to come. What's ahead? Another Firefly chapter, a revamp of The Lawyer and The Unicorn, and then more Nightmare Night. Still going strong, and I'll be here as long as there's an audience for my work.
